I know this at least doesn't include if you're discussing child abuse and don't intend on harming anyone yourself. But I'm more worried about the stuff I don't know about. And to be perfectly honest, the situation in my country is so bad that I don't think every desire to harm others is necessarily unwell.

It's definitely not. But once again the line is between stating desire and stating intent. You won't get put on a hold for saying you want someone dead. You will get put on a hold for saying you are going to kill someone and have a plan to do so. Somewhere between those two points is the threshhold where some mental health professionals will report you and some won't.

I misspoke. It's gotten so bad in my country that I wouldn't even consider a person with intent to be unwell.
